How would one build a decent honda?
I was given an eg civic from my grandad who passed away.
Now because honda engines are known for being slow I was thinking I could put a 4age engine in there and destroy all the other civics with toyota power / suprise people with it having okay power for a little 1.6 liter.
Has anyone ever done this before?
>>15431283
I was thinking the turbo engine from a starlet gt might also work.
I don't want a honda engine because hondas are slow.
I've seen all the memes on the internet.
Do you think a 4age is a bad choice?
>>15431315
>>15431347
How is this bait?
If hondas are fast than why do so many people on facebook say they are slow?
Everybody knows civics are slow.
Wow epic thread op! Really thought out my friend
>>15431490
how much do you want to spend? what kind of roads do you live around?
if you live on some smooth and curvy mountain roads, you should just do a typical b16 build with a 6 speed with some cheapish coilovers, rear disc swap, nice vented rotors up front, and some sporty tires from a good company
if you live in an area with straight and long roads with minimal potholes you pretty much need a k20 swap with a turbo to make it fun because 300whp+ is the only thing that will keep it interesting
if you live in an area with long and straight roads with no potholes just keep it stock, otherwise you'd have too much power for the suspension to handle or your suspension would be too low and it would be awful to drive around
>>15431676
that last one was supposed to be 'with lots of potholes'
>>15431666
VTAKS mini.

>How would one build a decent honda?
>Buy Honda
>K swap it
>Turbo it
>???
>Fast Honda
>>15432200
I want a decent engine not a slow honda meme engine.
>>15432237
Love the 4A-GE myself, but thinking it's better than the K series is fucking stupid
>tfw actually do want to learn if 4age in a 90s honda is possible but op ruined it
>>15431280
you're grandad is a moron and im glad hes dead. Good fucking riddance
>hondas are slow
>then what is gayiata
>>15431280
You need the 2jz. It will decimate all
>>15432342
Nice try op, b8
>>15432363
but im not op
>>15432371
Haha you almost got me there bud, b8
>>15432387
wheres the b8
>>15431315
>I've seen all the memes on the internet
Kek OP, really subtle. I like it.
I'll assume youre really naive, if Honda engines suck, why do some people who have an AE86 bother swapping a F20, or putting a K20 in a an MR2?
>>15432479
stop replying to him and if you know just say how a 4age swap would work
stop replying to shitposters
>>15432481
Not him, but the only way to get a 4A to work in a Honda would be with customers fabbed mounts to sit in the bay right, then you have to determine if you have to fab an adaptor plate to work with the Honda trans or if you want to use a Toyota trans, then you have to fab custom mounts for the trans if you go Toyota, then you have to figure out if you're going to use the Toyota ECM or a standalone like AEM EMS or MS3, then it has to be programmed if you go standalone, then a customer exhaust would have to be fabbed
Should cost about $500 and a weekend
This thread is bait, but if I had a good condition EG I would start with a B16, B18, or B20 swap. Look up the differences and find witch fits your needs best. Make sure and install a LSD into the trans before putting it into the car. I/H/E and some mild cams. New rotors and pads from EBC or Hawk. Koni or Bilstein shocks with ground control sleeves. 14" or 15" wheels 7" or 8" wide with something like BS RE-71R or BFG Rival S tires. Various frame bracing throughout the chassis. And thats pretty much it.
>>15432530
>B series
even a D16Z6 is better than the 4AGE lmao
4As are really terrible
>>15432495
>ECU
why not just carb it
>>15431280
>Has anyone ever done this before?
Why are you asking /o/ this?
>>15432535
You could, buy carbs are shit compared to ecu's, without question
>>15432564
Wrong
>>15432570
get off of /o/ grandpa
>>15432579
Then why do experts carb the Honda B18c? They're experts?
How much is a 4age and the things it needs anyway?
Is it cheaper to get a 4age and swap that in with carbs then to get a Honda engine and swap that in?
I dont know my family but a carb 4age in a honda sounds fun
>>15432583
Source on that bullshit, no expert carbs a B18C
>>15432583
hardly anyone carbs B18s what are you smokin
>>15432583
Also, it's a hell of a lot more expensive to swap a 4A just due to the labor of putting in a separate manufacturers engine into a car it never came in
I took a picture of the engine bay. Will a 4AGE fit in there?
>>15432611
Why is there a ls3 in your honda?
>>15432611
>Spoon™ parts
Why do you need to mod it any further, you already have a godmachine
>>15432713
>image.jpg
>implying that's an actual image of his engine
Step it up senpai
>>15432721
want bread?
>>15432724
Well since you asked, what do you think faggot?
>>15432734
Idk. i just want to make my honda fast. maybe a diesel engine? since the honda has no torque.
>>15432756
Why don't you sell it if all your going to do is bitch about it?
>>15432756
K20 makes torque, it just makes that torque at a high rpm. Shift later.
>>15432764
If i sell it i won't have a car anymore. and even if i try and sell it no one wants to buy a crappy honda like this anyway.
>>15432772
If i try and shift later the engine makes a funny noise. and I don't want to break it since i don't know what engine i will swap in it.
>>15432790
>No one wants to buy a crappy Honda like this anyway
Then give it to someone who won't be an ungrateful little shit like yourself
Stop replying to this shit thread
>>15432808
Its a good thread about engine swaps. Fuck off if you hate it
>>15432808
I think OP is genuine, idk :^)
>>15432808
pretty much every thread on /o/ is shit
>>15432837
Your shit
>>15432838
My shit? What about it :^)
>>15432845
>being a grammar Nazi
Ur a shet
I think this might be a good engine. Its my uncles car.
I can probably convince him to swap his cars engine into mine. If i can put the honda engine into his car. It says turbo on it, so i think its alright.
Is it any good?
>>15431280
I know this is bait, but damn are you bad at hiding it.
lmao slam a RB26DETT already famalam.
>>15432897
>wanting to experiment with engine swaps is b8
>>15432932
I want to go with the spirit of 4 cylinders
>>15432338
k series is a slow honda engine
they don't make fb memes for nothing
>>15432479
Because some people are idiots.
>>15431280
Swap a b16a in it and boost it. You will be faster than 99% of cars on the road.
>>15432237
Fucking kill yourself
>>15435427
>Kill yourself for wanting a decent engine.
>>15431280
I'm a die hard Toyota guy but even I can't deny that Honda makes some god tier engines.
K swap mang.
>>15436380
Explain all the facebook memes and shit posting about hondas on here than you mong.
>>15436391
baka mang jus bating shiiiiieeet rayciss whiteboi

Memes have got to be based of something and that is hondas are shit because the engines are slow. i just want advice on what engine to swap so i can beat v8s

>he thinks his 8 cylinders will save him from getting rekted
Leave the poor civic alone, OP. Sell it to some beaner and leave the ricing to him. Then with that money, go to the ford mustang store, take out a loan at 19% interest and download the base model mustang. You will be happier with it, trust me.
>>15436805

Wow no wonder they just shitpost on here
>>15435415

If you like facebook memes and going fast just fucking LS swap it and call it a day OP you stupid faggot.
>>15437319
Are you implying LS engines can not go fast?
>>15437300
I could put a big turbo on my mums camry and make 605hp on stock internals...
Doesn't mean it's a good engine.
>>15437253
you can boost an k27z7 on stock internals and make the same horsepower you fuck.
or a 2.2 liter f22 from the s2k can make more horsepower than the mivec turbo
>>15437353
>k27z7
>k27

Honda still a shit
Find me a video proving otherwise
Protip: you can't.
>>15431280
honda makes good engines (at least, when compared to other small 4 cylinders), if anything, complain about the FF layout.
>>15437078
> k engine is slow
> revs faster than every other engine mentioned
k bro
>>15437519
>Honda makes good engines.
>FB is full of nothing but memes about civics being slow
>People commenting on "Lol. id never be a ricer and drive a civic...
Aaaaaannddd yet somehow you think civic motors are good.
>>15437527
yes if only they had dropped in a thirsty, unreliable 9 litre 350hp lump of pig iron and went somewhat faster in a straight line, it would truly show how great they are at designing engines
